Presenting the Most and Least Compatible New York City Neighborhoods

January 24, 2012

According to data released to us by OkCupid, some New York City neighborhoods are more likely to make connections on the dating site than others. This may seem intuitive in some ways, but it’s better to know these things for sure, right? After all, just like that map that tells us where the single men and women live, we can use this for our own purposes, whatever they may be. The numbers below reflect “the average compatibility between people in each neighborhood with other neighborhoods.” The NUMBER 1 top compatibility is between…drumroll please…Greenpoint and Bed-Stuy, featuring a 46.09 compatibility return!

The compatibility run of Greenpoint daters with everyone else is only briefly interrupted by a 41.57 compatibility score between Bed-Stuy and Prospect Heights, then Greenpoint goes on to pair with people in Long Island City, Central Harlem, Downtown Brooklyn, the West Village, and so on. Astoria gets in the action with Prospect Heights and Bed-Stuy, as well.

If you don’t see your particular neighborhood match here and simply cannot bear to go on without this information, email us, or ask in the comments. Also: There are exceptions to every rule, happily married Turtle Bay/Chelsea couples!
